  Speaker 3: in the second chapter of the Book of Jeremiah and
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: God begins to speak to his people about how they've
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: walked away from him. This chapter is emotional because God
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: compares Israel to a faithful bride who once loved him deeply,
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: but later drifted away. And honestly, this message still speaks today.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: It speaks to our hearts. A lot of people start

• 1:55
  Speaker 3: serving in the local church, loving Jesus Christ boldly, But

• 4:24
  Speaker 3: at this on how easy it is to do so
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: as we read this chapter together. But let's go before
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: our father and prayer a leet. Father, we surrender to you, Lord.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: We ask that you will saturate us in your presence. Lord.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: We ask forgiveness if we have offended you, if we
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: wronged you in any way. We cast off all cares,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: all concerns, all anxieties. We cast it to the wayside.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Father God, we come to you Lord, and we ask you,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: oh God, for grace. We asked for strength, and we
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: asked o God, for your tender mercies of God to
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: make it through today, whatever we may be dealing with today. Lord,
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: we just asked Lord for your grace and your presence
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: to help us make it through. Father, we thank you
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: in Jesus' name. Amen. All right, let's jump into this
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: book of Jeremiah. We're in chapter two and we're gonna go.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: We're gonna tackle the first eight verses. Amen. We're not
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: gonna rush through this. We're gonna allow the word of
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: God to saturate our hearts. My little background, of course,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: we know Jeremiah was called at a young age. God
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: told him that he knew him before he was even
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: in the womb, that he was called to be a
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: prophet to the nation. This is one of the darkest
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: times in the history of Israel. They had kings that
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: were wicked and people just walked away and fell away
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: from their God. And it's similar to what we're going
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: through in our country. Jeremiah was called to preach a
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: message to this nation, to the king and the priest
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: and all the leadership of this nation. And God said,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: straight up, they are not gonna listen to you, but
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be with you. Jeremiah felt insecure because he
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: was but a youth. He was young, but this should
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: let us know that even at a young age, God
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: can still use you. Don't allow your age to stumble you.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Even if you're older, God can still use you. Amen.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: And so this should be a very encouraging book for
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: us as we start after two. As I said a
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: minute ago, God is gonna reminisce how the relationship used
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: to be with his chosen people. So let's jump into it.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Verse one moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: go and cry to the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, thus
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: says a Lord, I remember you the kindness of your youth,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: the love of your betrothal, when you went after me
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: in the wilderness, in a land not sown. Now, let's
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: break this down re quick. This is powerful because God
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: begins to remember their love. How many of us remember
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: our first love, the first time we met our wife
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: or our husband, the first date, the first phone call,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Remember how the butterflies are in our stomachs. Amen. I'm
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: a bit of a lover boy myself, so I can
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: definitely relate to this. God reflects back on their early
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: relationship usual had with him after coming out of Egypt.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: You see, they depended on him in the wilderness, and
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: they trusted him, and they followed him. God remembered their
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: devotion to him. This sounds like a relationship, more like
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: a marriage. The language is like a marriage relationship. And
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: see how God loves us so much. We are the
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: bride of Christ. Amen. You see. Christianity is not supposed
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: to be just religion. It is supposed to be a relationship.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: God doesn't only want church attendance. God wants our hearts.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: He wants our whole heart. Some people listening today remember
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: when they first got saved. Let's look back, Let's go back.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: I can remember I was fifteen years old, and I
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: can remember I used to wash busses at ring Ross
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Bus station. That was my first job, fifteen years old.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: And we used to wash the buses. We used to
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: go in and detail the buses, and I remember just
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: thinking about God just on the outside, just with the
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: brush and with the soap, and just as the bus
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: was coming through the washwrack, you know, we would touch
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: it up and everything and just all I can think
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: about was God. All I wanted was to be married
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: and to have God in my life. That was like
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: my dream. Hey man, can you remember, Remember the excitement,
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Remember the passion, the hunger we had for God, our
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: consistent worship. But then over time, life happens, right, distractions come,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: compromise entered in, and God is saying, I remember when
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: you were close to me? Isn't that a good God?
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: God could have just cast us off right, He could
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: have just threw us away. He could have just said,
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: you know what, since you walked away, forget you. I'm
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: gonna go over somebody else. But no, he wants to
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: remember our first love. Verse three, Israel was holiness to
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: the Lord, the first fruits of his increase. All that
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: devour him will offend. Disaster will come upon them, says
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: the Lord. Now what this is saying right here is
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: God has separated Israel for himself. They were called to
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: be a holy nation that Israel. Israel belonged to God,
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: uniquely among all the nations. God protected them because they
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: were His covenant people. And today believers are still called
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: to be set apart. We're not perfect, but we're supposed
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: to be different. Culture, says blend In. God says, be holy.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: This general ration desperately needs believers unashamed of living different
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: amen This generation needs believers who are unashamed to point
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: the way, to point the way, to give direction and guidance.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: Verse four and five. Hear the word of the Lord,
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: old House of Jacob, and all the families of the
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: House of Israel. Thus, as the Lord, what injustice have
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: your fathers found in me? That they have gone far
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: from me, have followed idols and have become idolaters. Now
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: right here, this is heartbreaking. You can just hear the
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: heart of God breaking with this question. What did I
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: do wrong? Amen? That's deep. God has been faithful. God
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: has been faithful to you. He has been faithful to me. Amen.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: God has been merciful, more so than we deserve. God
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: has been patient with us. Think about every time you backslid,
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: that I backslid. Think about every time we went back
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: to our old life, old habits, old attitudes, old thoughts.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: We did not allow God to reign in our hearts
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: the way that we're supposed to. And He's been patient,
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: and he still loves us. He is still a loving God.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: Let's just that, just dropping our spirits. Let's just marinate
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: on that right now, how good God has been to us. Amen,
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Yet people still walk away. That's reality. That's a wake
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: up call right there, as good as he's been to us.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: And I'm guilty of this, Beloved, I'm guilty of it.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: More often than I care to admit. I wish I
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: was more spiritual. I can look real spiritual on social media.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I can look real spiritual on this podcast, doing club
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: his hop and writing songs for the Lord. But what
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: about the private time? How much private time am I
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: spending with my Savior, with the lover of my soul.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: How much time am I worshiping him behind doors when
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: I choose to watch TV instead, or I choose to
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: be on the internet, or choose to even work on ministry,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: doing his hot and neglecting. Let us not neglect our
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: intimate time God, let us not break his heart. Listen
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: to his heart. He's like, what did I do wrong?
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: This should be the best part of our day, spending
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: time with our first love. Amen. You see. The tragedy
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: is the idolatry. The tragedy of idolatry is the fact
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: that people leave the living God for empty things that
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: cannot satisfy. How many times have we turned to sin
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: and we were left empty, high and dry. All Satan
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: wants to do is still kill and destroy, and we
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: run to him like he's the best since sliced bread,
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: when we're gonna get ripped off. When God is saying
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: that he wants to make us whole, that he truly
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: loves us. Hey man, let's do better, family, Let's treat
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: God better. I pray our hearts break.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: That.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: It is more than just going to church. It's more
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: than being religion religious. It's about loving our heavenly Father.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: It's about falling in love with Jesus giving him our hearts. Amen.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Now they might have ran after idols back then, but
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: modern idolatry still exists today. It's not just a statue.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: People worship money, people worship fame, They worship relationships, they
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: worship us status, social media validation, people worship celebrities, and
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: they worship self. Look at all these things that people
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: put in front of our relationship with God. Anything that
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: takes God's place becomes an idle. We have to be
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: careful of that. I have to be careful. Even I'll
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: admit that even his hot Nation became an idol. When
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: I had the club and I was busy, just club, club,
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: club and busy, you know whatever. And I barely had
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: time to spend with God. And so God had to
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: sit me down for a while. And I'm glad he did.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: A man out of his love. He had to strip
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: things from me, people, and a lot of things had
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: to be stripped so that I can start seeking him
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: again one on one. Amen. And I'm glad he did
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: it now. But here's the danger. We slowly become what
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: we worship. That is idolatry. We slowly become the very
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: thing we worship. Let that fall in our spirits, Beloved,
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: how many of us walk like talk, like dress like
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: our favorite celebrity, other person we used to look up to.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: We wanted to be like that person. God put that
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: in there so that real men want to be like
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: Jesus Amen, verse six. Neither did they say, where is
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: the Lord who brought us out of the land of Egypt,
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: who led us through the wilderness, through the land of
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: deserts and pits, through the land of drought and the
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: shadow of death, the land that no one crossed and
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: where no one dwelt. The people forgot what God had
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: brought them through. That is dangerous, Loved. They forgot about
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: the miracles, They forgot about the deliverance. They forgot about
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: the protection. How quickly people can forget God's blessing once
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: they become comfortable. Right, once we get into a comfortable place,
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: we get that house we always wanted, that job, that position,
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: we always want it. And then we spend our time
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: consumed in that and forget the very God who blessed
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: us with it. And honestly, people still do this. It's
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: not just ancient Israel. People do this even now. We
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: cry out during hard times, then forget God when things improve.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I've been guilty of this. But remember the same God
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: who brought you through before. It's still faithful today. If
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: he delivered you from addiction before, he can sustain your freedom. Now,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: if he healed your heart before, he can restore your
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: heart once again, a man, he is the same God.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Verse seven. I brought you into a bountiful country to
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: eat its fruit and its goodness. But when you entered,
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: you defiled my land and made my heritage an abomination. Wow. Wow, wow, wow, man,
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: you see, God bless them, but they corrupted the blessing. Wow.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: That's my heart's breaking. Even now, this happens even today,
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: beloved it. Sometimes people pray for opportunities. We pray for success,
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: we pray for our relationships, our platforms, even for influence,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: But once they receive it, they forget about God. We
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: see this way too often. Blessing should draw us closer
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: to God, not further away. Don't let success disconnect you
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: from the one who blessed you. Let me say that again.
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: Don't let your success disconnect you from the very one
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: who blessed you. Verse eight. The priests did not say
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: where is the Lord? And those who handled the law
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: did not know me. The rulers also transgressed against me.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: The prophets prophesied by bail, which is wicked, and walked
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: after things that do not profit. This is serious because
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: the spiritual leaders themselves became corrupted. Wow, what do you
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: do when the spiritual leaders become correct?
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: Dude?
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: What do you do when the pastors and the prophets
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: and the ministers become corrupted? Does that sound like the
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: times we're living in now? When the priests stop seeking God?
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: What do you do when your pastor stops seeking God?
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: When the leaders rebelled against the Lord and beloved. When
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: you shut the door on God, you open the door
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: to Satan. By default? Do not go to a church.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to belong to a church where Satan
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: is the pastor you know what I mean. Think about it.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: The prophets spoke false messages. When spiritual leaders become compromised,
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: the nation suffers spiritually belove it. I believe the church
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: is in the condition it is in today because of
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: I mean not the church. The country. Country is in
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: the condition it's in today because of the church. The
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: church is responsible to keep the health of a nation,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: to keep a healthy community, to keep a healthy family unit.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: The church has a lot. People want to discount the church.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: People want to make the church as if it's irrelevant.
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: People don't realize how powerful the local church truly is.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: But once the church goes dark, the nation will follow.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: So discernment is critical today. We need to pray daily
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: every day for a spirit of discernment. Not every voice
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: that is speaking spiritual truth is from God. Let me
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: say that again. Not every voice that maybe speaking spiritual
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: truth is from God. Satan will use a little bit
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: of the truth. Well he actually he'll use ninety five
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: percent truth and five percent lie. Right. If we cooked
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: you a meal and it's a good, healthy meal, right,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: a good, healthy dinner, but we only put a little
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: bit of poison in it. How much poison do you
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: need to contaminate that food? How much poison do you
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: need to kill you? That's why I believers must stay
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: in scripture themselves. Depend on your pastor don't depend on
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: anyone else. Don't depend on this podcast. Even though we
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: go verse by verse to the Bible, you're not to
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: depend on it. This is just a help and aid
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: to point you to the truth, point you to God,
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: and so that you can go through the scriptures yourself.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: I want you to go ahead and read the Book
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: of Jeremiah. You know where we're gonna be right on
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: the next episode. To read ahead, and so read it
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: with us as we go through it, so that we
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: can get more out of it. Amen. I don't want
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: to be put on a pedestal. I don't want people
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: to look to me or worship me. I mean, yeah,
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: we're supposed to be examples, but all the glory goes
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: to God. If I don't point you to Jesus, then
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: I failed you. If I only point you to myself,
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: then I'm doing both of us at disservice. Amen. I
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: don't want that smoke from God. So we need to
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: pray for discernment. We need to stay in our scriptures.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: We need to know the word, study the word, and
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: test everything against the Word of God. Whatever your pastor
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: tells you or is teaching you, whatever word that you
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: may be getting tested tested with the Word, tested by
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: the Holy Spirit. Ask God to reveal the truth that
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: you may not be able to see in front of you. Amen.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: This is critical because the Bible says in the last days,
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: the days you're living in right now, there is a
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: great falling away. A lot of people are falling to
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: the wayside, and this is a matter of life and death.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: This is the determined whether you go to heaven or
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: we go to hell. This is not something that we
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: need to take lightly. We need to be serious about
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: our relationship with Jesus Man. All right, y'all, time for
• 28:19

  Speaker 3: today's segment. My time is up. But I got some
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: closing encouragement though. And man, we're just now getting into
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: the book. This is a heartbreaking beginning. This is gonna
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: be a long haul. This Book of Jeremiah is a
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: long book, almost as big, long as the Book of
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: Acts we just went through, maybe even longer. But Jeremiah
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: chapter two is really about one thing, returning to God.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: Maybe someone listening today realizes I've drifted. I'm not as
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: close to God as I used to be. Now the
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: good news is this God still calls people back. Isn't
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: that good? Amen? His grace is still available, His mercy
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: is still available, His love is still reaching out for you.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: It's not a coincidence that you're listening to this podcast,
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: this particular episode, at this particular time in your life.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: Don't let idols replace intimacy with God. Amen. That is
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: a T shirt that right there is a a sign
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: we need to put on the wall. Return to your
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: first love. Amen. Allelujah. Now let's pray Heavenly Father, thank
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: you for loving us even when we drift away on God,
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: help us recognize anything that has taken your place in
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: our hearts. Restore our passion for you. Teach us to
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: seek you daily and walk closely with you. Once again,
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: give this generation discernment, boldness, holiness, and hunger for your presence. Lord.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: We asked this in Jesus' name. Amen, and remember it's
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: not about us, It's all about the Christ in us.
• 41:48
  Speaker 5: God bless you.
• 42:01
